Dear Ceties,
As I can see unfortunately there are not so many records regarding this topic.
You may find information about USS on the following link:
Should you have any questions please feel free to ask!

Hello Ceties,
I have also done a libray for checking the USS protocol, but it doesn't work, I got always an error -1073807346.
If your program works, could you check my code, where is the problem? Thank you.

So here is the created library:
Tested with Siemens SINAMICS G120+CU240S - it might work with other devices but you will probably need to change parts of the code then. I am not responsible for any harm or demage of your device.
I will probably do some minor changes of the library in the nearest future then I will present new version.
READ THE ARTICLE INCLUDED (the pdf file) IF YOU AREN'T FAMILIAR WITH THE USS PROTOCOL!!!! Not because I would be so cocky but I belive it sumarises all the necessary information I needed to gather when I started to use Siemens devices (two months ago)
1] The baud rate has to be set properly (2010)
2] The address of the inverter has to be set properly (2011)
3] The library expects the length of the PKW to be set to 4 words (P2013) and PZD to 8 words (P2012) otherwise the communication will fail.
4] Parameters P700 and P1000 has to be set according to your communication type
5] To obtain correct reading of the content of the sent telegrams following association of the PZD words is expected (P2016):
PZD1 = STW1/ZSW1
PZD2 = HSW/HIW
PZD3 = not linked
PZD4 = STW2/ZSW2
PZD5 = not linked
PZD6 = not linked
PZD7 = r0031 = Act. filtered torque
PZD8 = r0032 = Act. filtered power

Here are also some useful manuals you migh need. Especially the G120 parameter manual.
2Lily: The error code might mean that you are connecting to wrong port. I think I got it couple times when I forgot to chnage the port number and I was trying to connect to bluetooth comport...but it's just a guess. Your code not easily readable for me. Feel free to use my library if it helps.
Cheers

ceties,
after having tried to communicate to our Micromaster 440 using LabVIEW a year ago, I finally resigned. Now I spent another two days trying to use your library with our inverter. And guess what? IT ALL WORKS NOW. I just did some small adjustments to the code you postet, as you mentioned. Thank you very much. Wonderfull work.
If anyone needs code or basic support for a MM440 don't hesitate to contact me.

hello Flo,
Could you send me your code, I can't have any response from our MM440.
Thank you.
